The final decision is based around metal choice; ranging in price from platinum, white gold or yellow gold. All have their benefits and challenges but it is likely that your choice will be influenced not only by budget but by what existing jewellery your loved one is wearing.

This relationship will allow confidence and trust in purchasing wedding bands, anniversary jewellery and subsequent gifts.

Due to the belief that a diamond engagement ring was a calming agent between man and wife, it was recommended as the stone to be set in wedding or engagement rings – not because of its beauty.

But don’t worry, just remember that, along with everything else about the wedding, choosing the engagement ring should be something that you should cherish and enjoy.
